Sunshine. Every single Christmas we’ve got sunshine
Never writing Santa cuz we don’t mind, and in the meantime,
workin’ on that tan line cuz every single Christmas we’ve got
Sunshine. Every single Christmas we’ve got sunshine.
Never leavin’ town because we don’t mind, you see its pool time.
Grab a Corona and Lime cuz every single Christmas we’ve got
Say that I miss it but I’m really not sure
Nothing that I wear is made out of fur
Could drive five see the California Raisins
Rather stay home, banana bread, cherry craisins
And uh, patio seatin’
So uh, we keep drinkin’
White lights blinking palm trees swayin’
Twirl soft-serve while the radios sangin’
“Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way!”
East coast jealous, what can I say?
We got a futon; grab a flight you can stay.
Mom and Dad think we so crazy, “No snow! No Christmas!”
OK maybe, but we got plenty Coco, Henney
Open up the blinds so I can get me some
Monday 92, Thursday 83
Coat on Sunday cuz we hit 70
Forgot where I put my scarves and gloves
Guess it don’t matter cuz the sun show us love.
And uh, they cancelled your flight?
So uh, stay another night?
Throw on some shorts so we can grab a bite,
Leave behind the keys cuz we walkin’ alright.
Snow shovel? Nope! Snow boots? Why?
Summer hot as hell but a blessing in disguise.
Could go to Flag if we miss it that bad,
But here I bike to work so I ain’t even mad.
Carolers? Maybe. Mormon temple crazy.
Christmas Wonderland feelin’ like Swazy.
Still nice out wash it down with a cold one
Kringle wishin’ he was me so he could come and get some Sunshine.
Canada is far to cold,
Florida? We are not old enough.
Hawaii? Cost too much to live.
California? Only ‘bout the show biz.
I hear the North is nice this time of year. Covered in snow? I’d rather stay clear.
I guess that leaves just one place for me, Arizona cuz it’s got plenty of…

Christmas Hearts

When joy overflows it comes from the heart
But missing that loved one can be awful hard
So we gather together when the holidays start
To show our support and to share our
Christmas Heart
Not every song will be filled joy
There are plenty of sad girls and boys
But I know what they need and I’ve known from the start
What they need is the love from a
Christmas Heart
Mark up your calendars with family events
Check thrice the list of the gifts you have sent
Because someone is sure to be left in the dark
And that person indeed will have no
Christmas Heart
And we wish for all
To have Christmas Hearts!

Is 10 o’clock to late to take her out?
It’s so cold I hope he lends his scarf.
She’s shivering. Her cheeks are turning red.
When he talks my hands the snow melts all around.
I can’t tell if she wants me in closer.
I just wish that he would more in close.
She’s glowing like the Christmas lights behind her.
I can see what’s coming in his eyes.
Can she see that, simply that,
All I wants a shot like showbiz, for us kids
The lights flash, I tilt her back
I know we LEGO cuz we click like a snapback.
Why I’m scared to make a move? Ask around, I’m the dude.
But she’s so fine and Christmas time has kinda set the perfect mood.
So can I…
What?
Um, Can I…
What?
Kiss ya?
Sure.
I closed my eyes moved on in the rest was all a blur.
Her Kisses taste like peppermint
Leave me tipsy like Crème de menthe
Jolly is the state I’m in when her lips are pressed to mine
Sweeter and sweeter everyday
I hope her Christmas list will say,
“Forget the gifts, for get the tree just decorate your lips with me.”
I cannot believe.
This is happening to me.
Now on every Christmas, I’ll think about the kisses.
I’ll dream about that warm touch that made my heart sing.
Made my heart sing.
My words freeze like below windshield right,
But the rest of me is lightin’ up like Santa’s sleigh tonight.
And if this a dream, well I’m really not sure
Cuz your lips don’t taste like sugar plums
So please don’t pinch I want some more.
I’m thinking these decorations are never comin’ down.
A Christmas miracle that you’re the one my heart has found.
So I’m gonna make one last Christmas wish for
just another taste of those peppermint lips oh

O! Dear Heather,

Every season, we’re just singin’.
And she’s just wishin’ for it to end.
No Rudolph, no frosty, no Chestnuts on an open fire,
No matter how much Kenny G.
Why, oh why can’t she see?
This music makes the holiday
Everything it’s meant to be.
O! Dear Heather, lend your ears!
Hark! You’ll hear it brings such cheer!
Coal filled stocking. Carolers, don’t come knocking.
Because even when it’s Christmas time
The Lumineers will do just fine.
Some Arcade Fire, some Mumford and Sons.
Not Nat King Cole, or Beach Boys for fun.
No matter how much, how much we all plea,
She’ll change the station. Why can’t she see?
This music makes this holiday
Everything it’s meant to be.
“It’s fun for all, what children call, their favorite time of year.”

Joy to the World

Joy to the world! The Lord is come
Let earth receive her King!
Let every heart prepare him room
And heaven and nature sing
Joy to the earth! The Savior reigns
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy
No more let sins and sorrows grow
Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make his blessings flow
Far as the curse is found
He rules the earth with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of his righteousness
And wonders of his love

Our Own Christmas

Lonely hearts on holidays wishing to be
Back at home at lovers bay
A Christmas wish for me
For I have toiled a many nights
Sweat a many days
To catch the train homeward bound
Where the mistletoe sways
Stay up for me I will be home.
You wait and see, this Christmas will be
Our own
We’ll have our own Christmas.
